A 'showy' crime story

First Act. On February 26, the mayor of the municipality of San Pedro in (Nuevo León, México. The richest city in Latinamerica), Miguel Treviño, told the media that it was likely that in the following days a "showy" violent event would occur in the town.

Second Act. 17 days after Treviño's statements, in the morning, the strongest opposition candidate, Mauricio Fernández (former mayor of San Pedro on several occasions), appeared in an interview on Multimedios Televisión, where he criticized the management of security in the municipality .

Third Act. Two bodies appeared inside a vehicle in one of the most crowded and 'showy' places in the municipality, the Rufino Tamayo Park.





The bodies appeared in the afternoon, before 7:00 p.m. The first reports indicated that the bodies allegedly had traces of violence, and their faces were covered with plastic bags, and they also presented a certain degree of decomposition.

The next day, it was learned that the bodies of the two men belonged to two men who days before had been 'picked up' (kidnapped) in the municipality of Guadalupe, both had criminal records and there was a search report for them, not for their crimes, but for being missing.


They were the two men whose bodies
appeared inside a car in Rufino Tamayo Park

Fourth Act. At night, Treviño appeared in an interview on the Bird Man newscast, better known as Architect Benavides. At some point it became a kind of 'deferred confrontation' by showing the mayor and candidate, fragments of the statements that Fernández had made at the same half hours before.


At the end, what was the name of the act?

Reform to hydrocarbons law is frozen

The reform to the hydrocarbons law was suspended indefinitely after two federal judges granted the first definitive suspensions with general effects against said legislation, which was published on May 4. With the resolutions of the First and Second District Courts in Administrative Matters, Specialized in Economic Competition, Broadcasting and Telecommunications, by Rodrigo de la Peza and Juan Pablo Gómez Fierro, the effects of articles 51, 57 and 59 Bis will be stopped indefinitely.

Second Chapter: The Vandalism

The saturday 9th of april, in San Pedro, Nuevo León, MX early in the morning, in the streets of the city some walls appeared vandalized with texts about of a supposed criminal gang.

The abbreviations CDN is a referencia of the Cártel del Noreste, a criminal gang that works in the mexican northeast. But, today, El Norte newspaper published an article about the case: The official report concludes that the vandalized houses and cars it was not a criminal gang action; and informed the investigation continues. As will be remembered, is an electoral year in Nuevo León, and San Pedro is one of the most important cities in the country.
